Fantastic
Thanks again, Canada.💚
I’ve always opted for the Moderna vaccine every jab - originally because Dolly Parton helped fund it… now even more confirmation I made the right choice. 😉
Oh wow. That is wonderful news!!!
YES! #CanadaStrong 🇨🇦💪
We should have a large supply, as Alberta won’t need many vials.
Excellent! Now hopefully my mobbed-up goon of premier - Doug Ford - makes it available to anyone who wants it and our quack of a Medical Officer of Health, Kieran Moore, sets up flu-COVID shots clinics so we don't have to pay $15 per jab to Galen Weston!!!
You can not get a COVID shot in Ontario today. There are none.
It took so long last fall for them to arrive. We kept calling around and none of the pharmacies had any idea. We were going on a big trip and wanted to get flu & COVID shots before leaving. A small US border town 30 min. away was awash in both. We bit the bullet and crossed the border and paid.
Alberta says hi.
We get to pay $100 for it in dictator Dani's anti-science Alberta, and can't even get it at a pharmacy. 🤬
Plus we had to reserve it online for some undetermined time/date in October, and even then only get it if there is enough to go around. 🤦🏼♀️
Fuck. That is bad! How frustrating.
A fellow Albertan. Who also wants Dani to get the hell out.
My condolences from B.C.
Shoppers Drug phones customers to "review" prescriptions and is then allowed to bill OHIP $80. Your family Dr only gets $35
This is why I use a local privately owned pharmacy and not Shopper's for my prescriptions. It has the added benefit of personalized care and they know me when I walk in.
I use an IDA pharmacy - Independent Owned and Operated
I do, too. The Medica Pharmacy I use is amazing. Left Shoppers a yrs ago
I like to know my pharmacist really well. When it comes to prescriptions, they are far more knowledgeable than the majority of doctors.
I wonder if there will be a future for vaccine tourism from American visitors.
Sorry, we need to look after Canadians first.
Now where do we sign up and please don’t say the evil drug mart for shoppers. I gave up on those over charging and screwing up prescriptions idiots.
I’ve received most of mine from a tiny independent pharmacy in my neighbourhood. Also switched prescriptions to that pharmacy! They actually answer the phone!
Agree I go to a small pharmacy Medicine Shoppe in my neighbourhood - awesome service!
yep, I use my local Sobey's pharmacy and they are fantastic, always reachable by phone if I have any concerns about my meds
Thank you RFK Jr.
I hope this is sarcasm.
people don't realize that we started building these vaccine facilities a few years ago and they are now up and running so we can make our own vaccines in Canada, this was a promise by former PM Justin Trudeau, it has nothing to do with the US
I do because I’ve kept up with the news. I’d move to Canada if I could! Sorry the U.S. has become such terrible neighbors.
it's ok, it's not you, it's the right wing administration of hate that needs to be removed 🥰
I tried so hard. I donated money, wrote letters, begged people to vote against the 🍊💩. It was all for nothing. Many are now finding out what I was trying to warn them against.
there were millions of us pointing it all out, many thought we were gaslighting them, they thought it was all a lie, they are now in the FAFO stage it seems
Joking I assume?? Or THAT Stupid??
pardon me, you can thank PM Justin Trudeau for these two new vaccine facilities, he made a promise to have them built and they are completed and up and running now
The Conservatives would never have done it. They've never done anything for the people.
Promises made and kept. Canada has control of vaccine production, and not a soul had any idea at the time what a wise pursuit this would be with the politics of our former ally in disarray. Thank you Justin Trudeau.
Canada makes her decisions, no need for 🇺🇸to take credit (even retrospectively) emulating a certain president who claims credit for things he has never done. Just staying…
Thanks for getting the word out. Thank you PM Trudeau. 🙏
Thank you, Justin
Was just about to say that!
Thank-you Justin Trudeau.
yep
Great news. When can we get our shots?!
“starting in time for the upcoming vaccination season”. 🙄 Every article misses this point. I guess production is still being optimized.
Usually early to mid October
Good news, but no comfort for those Canadians who can't take mRNA vaccines for medical reasons. Sanofi will not market the protein-based alternative, Novavax, in Canada this year, but is planning to do so in the future. It might be available in the USA, but the situation is pretty muddy there.
#elbowsup 🇨🇦
Good to know, thank you.
That's just the first one
Now, please start exporting. 🙏
Now let's escalate production of Novovax. I suspect there's going to b a lot of 🇺🇸s coming up here this fall!
Excellent!
thank goodness.
stick it in my veins! actually don't, it's intramuscular isn't it?
Yes...intramuscular
Woohoo! Great news. 👍
So quick question: Can Americans come to Canada to get vaccinated? If RFK Jr pulls the plug on getting vaccinated here, it seems it would be in your best interests to let us get vaccinated too.
according to our website online it is allowed, but you would have to check with the local pharmacies in Ontario and Quebec
Thanks 😊
 if only the feds would open up clinics in Alberta and Ontario, so they can be distributed reliably
People can easily get the shot in Ontario…
We are starting to get lgbtq refugees, wonder how long before we get vaccine refugees, vulnerable people who have lost access.
We already talk about it. Hearing that the legal fight won’t be resolved by the time our boosters are due. Wondering if our health insurance provider wants the risk of pre vaccine days. Wondering if Canadian manufacturers are planning for us and if we would be welcome to cross the border for a shot.
That’s a great question, I would like to believe if the vulnerable in any country had a need that could be met in any way by us we would try to help. It’s something I don’t think gets enough attention given how many with autoimmune disease or other conditions need protection.
There’s a great follow on here , American doctor and she’s amazing. @elizabethjacobs.bsky.social for all that want to keep up with all things public health in the US.
Thank you. Following now. I’m sure Canadians will help if they can. The chaos and deliberate sabotage is daunting. We really do appreciate our friends to the north. 🤗
You’re very welcome, and I appreciate all my friends to the south. We are all in this together 🇨🇦✌️
Nope. It would happen if PP had won, however.
So I gotta go to Canada for my next booster??
Moderna has vaccine plants in the US as well, but former PM Trudeau had two new facilities built in Canada so we could make all of our own vaccines like we did in the past, previous Conservative govts had sold them off to the US and then they closed them here
#conservativelegacy
Great news! 🍁
Get it rolled out.
Is there going to be vaccine tourism? I could use an excuse to get up to Mahone Bay. I will need a very large maple leaf bumper sticker and to figure out how to get back across that border.
PMJT promise kept
I am going to inquire with shoppers about getting it instead of Pfizer
